GUess the risk of someone falling and seriously hurting themselves would be prohibitive huh?
Problem solved...Stup*d kids keep biking through my small karesansui/ginshanada (Japanese-style gravel-area) that's in the middle of my front-yard (leaving deep tracks and a little gravel spilled onto the side-walk and driveway; and needs to be leveled-off with a broom every time they do that). Happens maybe 1-3x per week. Getting real annoying. I'd love to grab their bike while they're still on it, and slash their tires; but that may be illegal (or punch their parents in the nose).
I'm now planning to install short 1-2' tall bamboo-fencing around the gravel-area to deter kids and other dumb people from biking or walking through it (bamboo fencing like in Japanese gardens).
I was thinking spike strips.
It’s pretty quick! Depending upon which direction the sprinkler is facing, they may or may not get sprayed. Though, with kids, getting sprayed is “fun”, and they’ll try to “test” the system, only making the situation worse.Haha... trust me... I've thought about spike-strips (probably illegal, lol).
Also thought about a sensor to turn on a sprinkler (like someone else did here for birds on their koi pond), but I don't think a sprinkler system would be fast enough to charge pipes and turn on while someone quickly bikes/walks on it.
Lots of color going on right now.
